Would a clamp-on bipod such as this throw off the accuracy for a .30-06 hunting rifle with a floating barrel?

Can't answer that, because never used one with a floating barrel. I use on a Baretta 22 cal, semi auto assault rifle. It works great for that use. . . They are reasonably priced, so u could try it and if it doesn't work for u, your not out much $$

I don't believe so,i have used mine with my .308 Remington 770 and it worked fine. I hope i answered your question?

probably...not very stable. I suspect it would be fine is it were dug in. On a positive side, the bipod is extremely mobile and light weight.

That depends on the type of stock you have. If you have the original wood stock then no it wont fit. But if you have the composite stock with a pickatinny rail on the under side then yes it would work. The attachment that comes with the bipod only works if you have a swivel stud on the forehand part of your rifle. Also keep in mind I have this on my AR and I have to use 20 round mags or smaller in order to use it due to the limited height of the legs.

You could articulate sling attachment by using side of the stock at the front end, bipod is a streatch due to the fact that this is break barrel rifle, you could attach Picatinny rail on to the barrel and use quick detach bipod, very unpractical.Your permanent mount option may be stock underside just behind slot that accommodates cocking mechanism, this is too far back for conventional bipod mount, added weight will be a nuisance and I don't see the benefit, I use Coldwell front and rear sandbags for bench shooting and cleaning, much more practical.

Highly doubtful. The spring is not strong enough that I would say it fits "firmly" on anything. Also, as you rightly seem to suspect, the design of the clamp will most likely make it not fit on your barrel since your magazine is in the way. To clarify, I've never mounted one on a Marlin 60, but I really think it wont work.

With impregnated sling studs it may not have enough room to clamp around. Honestly though, Id pass on putting this bipod on anything other than a .22 its kind of junky.

Yes, as long as you have a swivel stud, the bipod comes with an adapter for mounting it to a regular rifle.

Short answer yes. This has a flat magnetic back so as long as your barrel is flat at the end it will. However it does not have a counterbore to ensure it is completely centered. You can get it close enough by eye, under 1/32". It will be very accurate as long as the end of your barrel is perpendicular to the centerline of the barrel. Short answer yes.

I would not think so. When tight it clamps to the barrel and rests on the air pump chamber at the same time.

i don't know, the first one that was sent to me had to be sent back. When I put the piece on the magazine on the front of the rifle and tightened down the hollow set type screw the screw broke and the threads stripped out. I had no problems with the second one, it's just the metal is pretty thin and I'm not sure if it's strong enough to adapt it to work as a support for a bi-pod.

This bipod mounts directly to the rail. No attachments are needed. I would not recommend this bipod for the 7.62x39. It will not stand up to the caliber. The legs on one of the bipod would tend to get loose and cause the weapon to become uneven

Yes,/but most likely you will be limited to the "Harris" brand that attaches to the forward sling swivel stud. There may be other brands out there that attach in the same fashion that I am not aware of. The Harris brand bipods are truly great products, they just tend to be a little spendy. Depending on exactly what you are shooting at and where, you could also use benchrest stand (Caldwell makes "Rock Junior: iirc) for approx $30-40. And there are spring loaded clamp on the barrel models for $10-15. The clamp style has the POTENTIAL to affect accuracy due to its direct contact with barrel. Hope this helps.

I mounted my bipod using a gg&g; metal adapter, it clamps onto the rail on the bottom of my rifle.Gg&G Harris Bipod Adapter

I use this to hold a bipod attachment, it works fine for that but hold a zero position for a sight...I cannot say

It depends on the thickness of the barrel and where the sights are. If you are using iron sights maybe - should be fine with anything higher than that.I put mine on the tube of a pump shotgun so I could mount a light under the barrel.Worked well. I was afraid there wouldn't be enough clearance between the tube and the barrel, but it was OK.There were also more than enough thread left to accomodate a larger diamater barrel.

If your bipod is equipped for a picintinny rail you will need the adapter to fit over the swivel to convert to your bipod. I would not use a barrel mount on your particular rifle.

I have no idea about the bipod. May be a little awkward with the break barrel.

Yes, I put it on my Remington model 700 standard barrel 30-06. It's worth a "shot" with your free-floating.
